Ovar is known for its tiles—a living heritage that marks facades, traditions, and the city's very identity.
It was this richness that inspired Rafael Salinas Calado, of the National Tile Museum, to call it the Living Tile Museum City.
And now... it's your turn to join in the story.
How does it work?
- Choose your tile
On our wall, near reception, are several tiles representative of the city. Choose the one that inspires you most—the one that, in some way, marks your stay.
- Go tile hunting
Ask for a map at reception and head to Rua dos Azulejos. Explore carefully—your tile is there, on one of the historic facades!
- Photograph the reunion
Take a photo next to the original tile. Show us when you return, and you can also tag us on social media.
- Receive your reward
Show the photo at reception and enjoy a complimentary drink at our bar.
